yellowstone trip

we had a great trip to yellowstone this past august with brian's parents. we camped, fished, took a boat ride on the lake, looked for arrowheads and bits of obsidian, explored new parts of the park, went to ranger programs, and saw lots of animals. it was great--as going to yellowstone always is!


we saw tons of bison while we were. including a lot of bison on the roads.






our campsite really was sloping down--so this picture is pretty accurate.




pictures at fishing bridge.

admire the yellowstone shirts we gave to b's parents. aren't they cool!


b swimming in the firehole river.

a grizzly bear we saw! it was eating a dead bison. this caused quite a traffic jam.

william wish one of his nice, nice cutthroats on his fishing trip with b and roland into the grand canyon of the yellowstone.



the river wasn't as raging this year as it was two years ago when i went down. but it was still a great trip. roland caught about 100 trout!

i always love seeing a yellow-bellied marmot.



a cool picture, i think. yellowstone lake is so huge.

roland standing along the yellowstone river where he used to go fishing with his brothers.



a natural chair that sierra found.


what a cool picture. i love that lake!

not only is this super upclose, but sierra also has a dirty face.
